They are both suffering from 62 years of frost bite sitting in OGP cello until today.

    Nice half, too bad about the hairlines in the obverse fields. Goes to show that even straight out of the original cellophane these can have noticeable hairlines.

    Seriously, nice coins!

    How come that cameo is not in a slab?

    Because both coins were cut out of OGP proof sets I purchased two days ago.

    Nice! I've looked in about 100 sets over the past two weeks and none have come close to that one.
